Because of my more or less regular stays in Sydney we decided this year to spend our annual vacation in Australia. The plan was that M. would first come to Sydney and then we would fly to Western Australia, rent a car there and then get some equipment from a friend and finally go somewhere. Until the evening before the trip we really didn’t know where we were going. I had already arrived in Sydney two days before with Air China and M. arrived on Sunday with Emirates. My flight was really cheap and quite empty. At M. the flight was full and expensive. All in all we completed two times Sydney and in between Western Australia with 6100 km in the car. The route there went from Perth to Coogee, Rottnest, then north, Shark Bay, Coral Bay, Karijini National Park and via Newman back to Meekatarra and Kalgoorlie. While Sydney is almost always very relaxed by the climate, Western Australia was riddled with adversities. But that’s what it’s all about.
Karijini National Park, located in Western Australia, is a spectacular and unique destination for nature lovers, outdoor enthusiasts, and those seeking a true Australian adventure. The park is home to a diverse array of landscapes, including deep gorges, rugged ranges, and sparkling waterfalls. It is also home to a variety of plant and animal life, including rare and endangered species.

Basically the quality of a car trip through WA can’t be compared to anything I had before. They are all extremes, but even now not so extreme. That comes only after the fact how special that was.

Here we were on a campsite with hundreds of cockatoos on the trees. What most people don’t know is that even if the birds are quiet, they are still quite loud. For some reason they sometimes get startled and fly a circle together and make a lot of noise.
